[Dev-C++] problem using dll from visual studio

[Axel B. <new...@th...>]

Hi Folks,

I'm new to the list because I couldn't find a solution to this little 
problem.

I am trying to use the sleepycat berkeley db 4.2, compiled under visual 
studio 6, with dev-c++. but this won't work - when linking I always get 
the following error:

	[Linker error] undefined reference to `Db::Db(DbEnv*, unsigned)'

this bugs me. I tried to include the .lib-file by -l switch, directly, I 
set the include/library paths, I tried to include the .a file, etc. 
nothing works.

AND I checked with nm that the lib indeed HAS the functions included - 
the cxx_*.obj-files are present in the lib. so - I'm clueless :-/

can anyone please help me, its kind of important ... :-)


thanks in advance & greetings,

axel.
